Atlético Squad Update: Key Return and Two Absentees

Diego Simeone has revealed the Atlético de Madrid squad for the upcoming league match against Getafe, scheduled for tomorrow at the Coliseum. Two notable absences from the squad are goalkeeper Jan Oblak and defender Le Normand.

Key Player Inclusion

Despite the absences, the squad sees the return of Giuliano, who is now fit for selection. Simeone mentioned, “Tomorrow we’ll decide if he starts or waits,” indicating that a decision will be made closer to kickoff.

Player Health Updates

  • Jan Oblak: Absent due to injury.
  • Le Normand: Missing from the lineup.
  • Giuliano: Included in the squad, fitness to be assessed.
  • Cardoso: Recovered from flu and performed well in training.

Cardoso, who recently overcame a bout of flu, looks to be in good form. Simeone commented, “He trained very well during the week and then had that fever which kept him away from training again. Today he returned with intensity.”

As Atlético prepares for this critical match, the return of Cardoso and the inclusion of Giuliano could play significant roles in their performance against Getafe.
